Download or read book Lebanon in Strife written by Halim Barakat and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-06-23 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, an eminent sociologist of the Arab world analyzes student politics in Lebanon and their relationship to the civil war. This focus is part of a larger concern with upheaval in Arab society and with political and social integration in mosaic societies in general. Professor Barakat provides a clear, thorough, and comprehensive analysis of late twentieth century Lebanese society and the dominant ideological veins within it. Lebanon in Strife is a comparative study of Lebanese youth with special emphasis on their alienation from society and politics and their place at the vanguard of social change. The study is set in the context of the continual confrontation between forces for change and the established order in Lebanon, viewed from both a local and an international perspective. The author argues that vertical loyalties (based on religious, ethnic, or regional ties) are more significant than horizontal loyalties (based on socioeconomic class) in determining Lebanese student political behavior and attitudes. However, vertical loyalties are explained in socioeconomic terms, for the two forms of cleavages coincide; and the whole society is composed of religious communities arranged in a hierarchy of power and status. The author shows that these ties conflict with and undermine orderly social change and national unity and that they could account for conditions that have led to civil war in Lebanon. In an epilogue, Professor Barakat relates his analysis of student politics to political developments in Lebanon during the civil war of 1975–1976, including an assessment of the role of Syria and the prospects for a negotiated end to armed struggle in the country. This is the first empirical study of Lebanese political life viewed from the standpoint of its central force for change, the students. It is an invaluable resource for students of the modem Middle East as well as for specialists in sociology, politics, and history. Lebanon in Strife has special relevance to problems of political change and development in the Third World countries, providing a sociopolitical model for the analysis of student politics in traditional and transitional societies.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study aimed at identifying the level of alienation among secondary school students in the city of Hebron, and also aimed to identify the effects of some variables on the level of alienation. The fact of alienation has become aggravated in our contemporary world, in the materials and ineluctable domains of human life. This present study addressed the issues of alienation as a multi-dimensional phenomena, which theoretical and empirical research has dealt with. Accordingly, alienation is procedurally defined by three dimensions which are: the feeling of anomie, the feeling of social isolation and the feeling of meaninglessness. The significance of this study stems from the fact that it tackles a new and important concern in the city of Hebron which lives in a state of suffocation and instability due to the spread of Israeli settlements around the city. In order to highlight the questions of the study and to verify its hypotheses, the researcher developed a questionnaire which examined the prevalence level of alienation among secondary school students in the city of Hebron. The sample of the study was (193) students, that were chosen by the stratified random sample. The ratio of the used sample was (10%) of the study population. After collecting the data, it was analyzed by using the statistical package for social science (SPSS). The study revealed the following results: there were a moderate feeling of alienation among the students. The study indicated that there were a different dimension of alienation whereby the meaning lessens represents the dimension which causes the most suffering among the students. Significant differences in the level of alienation were found due to the gender, cumulative average, place of residence and the location of the school in the city. Also there were no significant differences in the level of alienation due to other variables.

Download or read book Arab Youth written by Samir Khalaf and published by Saqi. This book was released on 2012-01-09 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2011, Arab youth took to the streets in their thousands to demand their freedom. Although it is too early to speculate on the ultimate outcome of the uprisings, one auspicious feature stands out: they reveal the genesis of a new generation sparked by the desire for civil liberties, advocacy for human rights, and participatory democracy. This unique volume explores some of the antecedents of the upheavals and anticipates alternative venues of resistance that marginalized youth - from Lebanon, Syria and Palestine to Saudi Arabia, Morocco and Iran - can mobilize to realize their emancipatory expectations. Themes covered include the forging of meaningful collective identities in times of risk and uncertainty; youth militancy, neighborhood violence and youth gangs; the surge of youthful activism; and youths' expressive outlets through popular arts and street music.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychological interest in religion, in terms of both theory and empirical research, has been constant since the beginning of psychology. However, since the beginning of the 21st Century, partially due to important social and political events and developments, interest in religion within personality and social psychology has increased. This volume reviews the accumulated research and theory on the major aspects of personality and social psychology as applied to religion. It provides a high quality integrative, systematic, and rigorous review of that work, with a focus on topics that are both central in personality and social psychology and have allowed for the accumulation of solid and replicated and not impressionist knowledge on religion. The contributors are renowned researchers in the field who offer an international perspective that is both illuminating, yet neutral, with respect to religion. The volume’s primary audience are academics, researchers, and advanced students in social psychology, but it will also interest those in sociology, political sciences, and anthropology.
